Hello,

I am currently trying to append Grid point data using some test files(Files attached for reference).  
I have noticed there is mismatch while appending the results.  
Is it possible to get correct results by updating script or by some other way?

[KP\_sol\_Node.csv](https://discourse.paraview.org/uploads/short-url/lwnh8gIOFf3CtlNf75yt23fMdKk.csv) (22.4 KB)  
[Plate\_Nastran.nas](https://discourse.paraview.org/uploads/short-url/vsyTyanMKHk8OajUTIgnFuZxzxs.nas) (74.2 KB)

Script used :  
blk0 = output.GetBlock(0)  
tbl = inputs[1]  
blk0.GetCellData().PassData(tbl.GetRowData().VTKObject)

Thanks in advance

So you are trying to load data from a csv and to add it on a loaded mesh ?

Please note that you mention `PointData`, then `CellData` and `RowData` in the code. Those are 3 differents containers that should not be mixed.

Best way (I think) is to convert CSV to mesh with `Table To Points` (or `Table to structured Grid`), then use `Append Attributes`.
